The following is a commentary on the NCR's article by Fr. Martin Fox from his Bonfires of Vanities blog. It's a very good critique, no?
NCR's Father Daly fixes the priesthood: less Cross, more sex!
Upon reflection, I'm not surprised that Father Daly and his beloved N"C"R can't fathom a priesthood associated with the Cross; they find it scandalous for the life of any Christian to be cruciform, at least as pertains to sex and desire. Chastity? No contraception? Sex only in marriage -- once -- between a man and a woman? Horrors!
Father followed up his first effort with another column a week later, but it is more of the same fallacies, non-sequiturs and evidence-free assertions. What a mess! Let’s take a look at the first article.

Beginning last year, Archbishop Viganò issued one reckless, unsubstantiated claim after another.
Among said claims was his declaration that homosexual networks enjoy on a widespread basis power within "dioceses, seminaries, religious orders, etc.,"
In regard to the above reckless claim, I noted the following in traditional" Catholic blogosphere's comment boxes:
Many "traditional" Catholics insisted that the Latin Church should open the door wide married priests.
Said folks agreed with the notion that the Latin Church is filled with homosexual priests. In turn, said folks believed that a substantial amount of married priests would benefit the (Latin) Church.
Decades ago, Pope Venerable Pius XII opened the Latin Church's door to married priests.
I believe that from that time to date, considerable support for married Latin Church priests has formed within the Latin Church.
Pax.

MT,
LOL - why would anyone listen to you about anything Church related? You can't even answer the two following questions:
1) John Nolan's question to you regarding Cardinal Mueller's dismissal by Pope "Mercy"; and
2) What PF has done to punish the gay clerics involved in a cocaine sex fueled orgy at the Vatican.
Until you answer these, you should just buzZ off and inflict your non sequiturs on some other blog because here you are now known as "Mr. Dump and Run!"
Thanks Father for the link and kind words.
